avutil/mem: Correct documentation of av_fast_*alloc(z)
The current wording regarding size and min_size is completely wrong and ignores that min_size is indeed only a desired minimal size, not the actually allocated size. Signed-off-by: Andreas Rheinhardt <andreas.rheinhardt@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Niedermayer <michael@niedermayer.cc>
